Route to TIBCO Rendezvous

Overview

TIBCO Rendezvous
is a low latency messaging product for real-time high throughput data distribution applications. It facilitates the exchange of data between applications over the network. A TIBCO Rendezvous daemon
runs on each participating node on the network. All data sent to and read by each application passes through the daemon. API Gateway uses the TIBCO Rendezvous API to communicate with a TIBCO Rendezvous daemon running locally (by default) to send messages to other TIBCO Rendezvous programs.

You can configure the TIBCO Rendezvous
filter to route messages (using a TIBCO Rendezvous daemon) to other TIBCO Rendezvous programs. This filter is found in the Routing category of filters.

Configuration

Configure the following fields to route messages to other TIBCO Rendezvous programs:

Name:Enter an appropriate name for this filter.

TIBCO Rendezvous Daemon to Use:Click the button on the right, and select a previously configured TIBCO Rendezvous Daemon from the tree. API Gateway sends messages to the specified TIBCO Rendezvous Subject
on this daemon. To add a TIBCO Rendezvous Daemon, right-click the TIBCO Rendezvous Daemons
tree node, and select Add a TIBCO Rendezvous Daemon. For more details, see the API Gateway Policy Developer Guide.

Rendezvous Subject:The message is sent with the subject entered here meaning that all other TIBCO daemons on the network that have subscribed to this subject name will receive the message. The subject name comprises a series of elements, including wild cards (for example, *), separated by dot characters, for example:

news.sport.soccer

news.sport.*

FINANCE.ACCOUNT.SALES

For more information on the subject name syntax, see the TIBCO Rendezvous documentation.
